It is debatable whether capital punishment Is a deterrent of crime, but there is unanmity of opinion that if ever a man deserved hanging it is Dr. Richard M. Brumfield, the Roseburg dentist convicted of the murder of Dennis Russell. Few crimes committed were so deliberately and cold-blood edly planned and diabolically executed. Brumfield's defense was insanity and his crude attempts to feign insanity and fake lapse of memory betrayed his ignorance of the subject. At the same time it is questionable if any normal person would or could commit such a crime. Most criminals are sub-normal, but the fact does not exten uate crime. Brumfield is a moral defective. He carefully calculated and eonsciencelessly planned the murder and get-away and was without remorse after it. He was indifferent during the trial and only the certainty of death by the noose caused regrets he had none for his victim. Hope gone, Brumfield's nerve failed. The man who could deliberately kill an acquaintance, change clothes with the corpse, extract its teeth, sending it speeding in his auto over a precipice, then dynamite and set it afire to destroy identification, confessed himse'f afraid to face the conse quence of his crime. The yellow streak that prompted murder to escape creditors, had recourse to the cowards refuge, attempted suicide, to escape the gallows. 11 Wl II I . I feir. BY Not a Scrap of Paper By its decision in the Phez case, the supreme court has declared that a contract between the grower, the selling agency and the processor is more than a scrap of paper. It is a covenant that must be lived up to under penalty of dam age for breech of faith. Such a decision was needed to reestablish the validity of contracts and restore the shattered morale of the berry and fruit industry. The attitude of growers in holding contracts to be scraps of paper nearly wrecked some of the largest industries in Salem and forced reorganization and refinancing as well as injured the reputation of the northwest in eastern! markets. Repudiation of contracts became epidemic in the era of economic demoralization following the war when almost everybody became inoculated with the virus of Drofiteerinir. It was not confined to any one class but permeated the whole structure of American industry, and there is no surer sitm of the return to sanity than the fact that the contract is again established as a valid covenant. The whole business structure is based utwn irood faith and repudiation of agreements undermines the foundation and irequently reacts m ruin.

The letter from Mr Phillips oi Ociooer !, i freshing insofar It gives their side of the case, does not the big pack ers the electric power company buy big space in the daily papers en lightening the public how many men are employed, how much money is paid out in wages, mil lions Invested by so and so, many thousands of investors, or stock holders? Why then should not the trained hand that guides the wheels of industry be heard from? Of course, he cannot buy space In daily papers as he is not able to do so, but he can .give his side of the case In most papers in Open Forum, or otherwise, as the case may be. and this way the public gets both sides to judge from, una-dulterated, direct from the parties In controversy, with out a middleman. This is the way It is done in the courts of most all countries centuries, but in spite of this simple and most just way, nations will go to' war, destroy what has been built up for cen turies, causing misery and death. Big strikes are inaugurated, caus ing losses by the hundreds of mil lions of dollars, the effects being felt In every nook and corner by about every person directly or in directly and afaer the flgr' is over and the dust and feathers have cleared away and then, and most limes only then, will the parties submit to a settlement. And the day of reckoning will come just as sure as water will run to its lev- ame of com mon sense not get together on both sides with a good honest will and purpose and settle these dif ferences beforehand In place of afterhand, as it Is much more easy to settle beforehand as c nerie'ice has taught us.
